Chapter 1050
Qi Mingyu then took a good look at Zhou Shuwan. Seeing that her face was haggard and her eyes were bloodshot, he knew that she was very tired and felt a little distressed: "Your head must be hurting again, right? I'll give you a massage later. It will be easier for you to sleep."
After staying up late for a long time, even if your brain is extremely tired, it will be very difficult to fall asleep when you want to.
That process will be very painful.
Zhou Shuwan shook her head: "It's not that bad. You're tired too. Let's go to bed together later."
There was clearly a special meaning in her words.
There was no one else in the room, so Qi Mingyu shook Zhou Shuwan's hand, and a hint of spirit appeared on his tired face.
Zhou Shuwan was stunned for a moment before he realized that he had misunderstood.
She immediately glared at him angrily: "I'm exhausted, and you still have something on your mind!"
Qi Mingyu looked innocent: "I didn't say anything!"
Zhou Shuwan tapped his bowl with his chopsticks: "Eat quickly and take a rest after dinner."
Qi Mingyu had a smile on his face. He lowered his head and slowly picked up a piece of smoked fish and ate it.
Although he did have some unspeakable thoughts in his mind, after all, they had not slept for a long time and everyone was extremely tired.
He had good intentions but lacked strength.
Zhou Shuwan was even more tired than him, and his scalp was throbbing with pain.
When Qi Mingyu was cleaning up the dishes, she was already leaning against the bulkhead, drowsy.
She vaguely felt someone holding the back of her neck and warm fingers running through her hair.
"Your hair smells like gunpowder." The man's deep voice vibrated against her ear, and his breath with the scent of sea salt brushed across her temple.
The folding bed in the rest cabin groaned under the heavy weight.
Zhou Shuwan sank into the soft bedding and felt Qi Mingyu's slightly cool fingers pressing on her temple.
She snorted slightly.
"It's okay, go to sleep." Qi Mingyu's powerful hands steadily massaged her temples and head in circles.
Use the fingertips to press repeatedly on the sore and swollen acupoints with just the right amount of force.
Zhou Shuwan's tense shoulders and neck slowly relaxed, his eyelids felt heavy as if they were hung with lead, and he didn't even have the strength to refute him when he said, "There's no way your hair smells like gunpowder."
"Does it still hurt?" Qi Mingyu's voice was very soft. His fingertips slowly moved down along her hairline, and when they passed over the protruding joints on the back of her neck, he deliberately reduced the force.
Zhou Shuwan didn't open his eyes, but just said "hmm" vaguely, the sound was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
I had been forcing myself to be on guard on the deck before, and my nerves were tense all the time. Now that he was massaging me, I felt so comfortable that all my fatigue washed over me, and even the throbbing in my scalp slowed down.
She unconsciously rubbed against his hand, like a kitten seeking warmth, and put the soreest part of her scalp closer to him.
Qi Mingyu chuckled softly and rubbed that spot lightly with his fingertips. His movements were so gentle that it didn't look like he had been holding a submachine gun and confronting He Chengshi's fleet a few hours ago.
The bed in the lounge was too small, so he half-sat up, carefully protecting her back with his other hand, fearing that she would fall if she turned over.
After a while, Zhou Shuwan's breathing became steady and long, and his brows gradually relaxed. It was obvious that he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Qi Mingyu stopped, the touch of her hair still lingering on his fingertips. He lowered his head to look at the faint dark circles under her eyes, and couldn't help but touch them lightly with his fingertips.
Everyone was very tired these two days, especially Zhou Shuwan.
She had to take her parents to hide in the rest area and be on guard against any movements from He Chengshi, and she also had to drive the cruise ship alone and shoot back when the crisis came.
Although, this was a plan they had discussed before.
But because they were too few in number and they had to take care of two people, so in addition to him and Mu Mu, she had to take on this responsibility even if it gave her a splitting headache.
Qi Mingyu's eyes were filled with incredible tenderness and heartache.
He propped himself up and slowly lay down, trying not to touch her. He just put his arm lightly on her waist, moving so gently as if he was afraid of disturbing anything.
In fact, he was also very tired, his eyelids had started to fight, but looking at the peaceful sleeping face of the person next to him, the fatigue in his heart seemed to fade a little.
He stared at the mottled iron sheet on the cabin ceiling, and went over the confrontation with He Chengshi and Zhou Shuwan's space problem in his mind. His brows unconsciously frowned, but soon relaxed.
Get some good sleep for now. Even if the sky falls, you won’t have to wait until you wake up to deal with it.
Zhou Shuwan didn't know how long he had slept, but he was awakened by a slight vibration.
She opened her eyes drowsily, and the sunlight from outside shone through the gaps in the porthole, casting a thin ray of light on the deck.
Qi Mingyu was still sleeping, breathing evenly, his arm still on her waist, but his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was having an uneasy dream.
She moved slightly, trying to move his arm away to avoid numbing him, but as soon as she touched his wrist, he gripped it tightly with his backhand.
Qi Mingyu slowly opened his eyes, still a little sleepy. Seeing that she was awake, he asked in a hoarse voice, "Awake? Does your head still hurt?"
"Much better." Zhou Shuwan sat up and rubbed his eyes: "What happened outside? It seemed to shake a little just now."
"We must have passed a small wave area. I just vaguely heard Mu Mu yelling outside, 'It's okay.'"
Qi Mingyu also sat up and stretched, his joints making a slight "clicking" sound: "You lie down for a while, I'll go see Mom and Dad and Mu Mu, and get some food by the way."
Zhou Shuwan then said, "So we've already set sail? I had no idea."
"We just sailed a short time ago. Don't worry, you can rest for a while."
Everyone knew that Zhou Shuwan's situation was special, so they all wanted her to sleep a little longer. After Mu Mu woke up, he drove the cruise ship away first.
Qi Mingyu just vaguely sensed the sound of the cruise ship starting, but in order to let Zhou Shuwan have a good sleep, he did not move.
"What time is it?" Zhou Shuwan had already sat up, his voice still hoarse.
Qi Mingyu had just checked his watch: "It's half past three!"
They looked at the bright sun outside the window, unable to tell whether it was afternoon or early morning.
The biological clock is completely messed up.
Even Qi Mingyu couldn't figure out whether it was 3:30 in the day or 3:30 in the night.
The aroma of fried fish wafted from the kitchen.
Zhong Tiyun was standing in front of the stove wearing an apron, and the smoked fish pieces in the iron pot were sizzling with oil.
Seeing them coming, she smiled and said, "Are you awake? How was your sleep? Does your head still hurt after dinner?"
Zhou Shuwan shook her head: "Much better, Mom, what should we eat? Has Mumu eaten? What about my dad? How is his injury?"
"Mumu has just eaten some dry food." Zhong Tiyun pointed outside: "Your father is on guard on the deck. Mumu has checked his wound and changed the bandage. He said there are no signs of deterioration."
